Water molecule is a?
polar molecule
Water is the ______ of oxygen?
Hydride
The boiling point of water is (group VIA)? same is true for what elements (group VA and VIIA)?
Much higher than would be predicted from its formula mass, NH3 and HF
Given the BP of water, what can you predict about hydrides of group 15 and 17 and their boiling points?
Higher than predicted for their formula mass
Why do these molecules with such a low molecular mass have such a high boiling point?
Because they are very polar
Hydrogen bond is?
a force of attraction between partial charges, S+ and S-
-individual water molecules attract one another
Which molecule usually has the partial positive charge?
Hydrogen
Which molecules usually have the partial negative charge?
O, N, or F
What type of bond is a hydrogen bond?
neither an ionic bond or a covalent bond
The hydrogen bond is a _____ bond.
weak, only about 5% as strong as a covalent bond
Because of hydrogen bonds, water has an unusually?
1. High heat of vaporization (boiling point)
2. High heat of fusion (melting point)
3. High surface tension
Liquid water forms a ?
surface at an interface with air molecules
What does water do on waxy or greasy surfaces? and why?
"beads," because wax and grease molecules are nonpolar and do not attract water molecules
-also, water molecules attract themselves much more than they attract nonpolar molecules
Why do the water molecules spread out on a clean glass surface though?
Because the glass has ionic charges present at surface, water is attracted to those sites and spreads out
What are agents that reduce the surface tension of water?
surface-active agents or surfactants
Name some surfactants
1. soaps and detergents
2. lung surfactant-prevent alveoli from collapsing
3. bile salts- necessary for digestion of fats
Water dissolves best those particles that?
attract water molecules and form "solvent cages"--known as HYDRATION
Dissolution of ionic compounds happens how?
water surrounds the ions with hydration shells
Ionic compounds in which the ions have two or three charges are generally?
less soluble than those in which the ions are univalent (harder to keep divalent compounds in solutions)
Dissolution of polar molecules
the hydration of a polar molecule helps polar molecular substances to dissolve in water
Hydrates
water-containing solids
a hydrate is...
an ionic compound that incorporates a fixed amount of water molecules in its formula unit
Water molecules are held within the crystals in? thus, hydrates are?
Definite proportions
Compounds, not mixtures
T or F. Formulas of hydrates are written to show that water is present?
True
The water present in a hydrate is referred to as?
the water of hydration
Heating the hydrate can expel the water, leaving the ____________ of the substance
Anhydrous form
What are dessicants and name some examples?
Hydrates in their anhydrous forms can be used as drying agents--remove water from air
-silica gel and anhydrous calcium chloride are examples
HYGROSCOPIC
is the general term for any substance that can remove water vapor from air (includes anhydrous forms)
Name 5 types of solutions
1. Dilute
2. Concentrated
3. Saturated
4. Supersaturated
5. Unsaturated
Dilute
ratio of solute to solvent is very small
eg, solutions in biological systems
Concentrated
ratio of solute to solvent is large
eg, syrup is a concentrated solution of sugar in water
Saturated
no more solute will dissolve at the given temperature; cooling the solution will normally cause the solute to precipitate
Supersaturated
carefully cooling a saturated solution can cause an unstable situation in which more solute than expected is dissolved
Solubility
Amound of solute needed to give a saturated solution in a given quantity of solvent at a specific temperature
Units of solubility
g solute/ 100 g solvent
In some cases, a saturated solution may be very?
Dilute eg, barium sulfate
In general, solubilities of solids?
increase with increasing temperature
Solubilities of gases...
decrease with increasing temperatures
Dynamic equilibrium
a situation in which two opposing events occur at identical rates so that no net change happens in the system
Example of a dynamic equilibrium
a system consisting of a saturated solution in contact with excess, undissolved solute
-saturated solution of NaCl in contact with excess, crystalline NaCl.
-Rate of ions leaving the crystals and entering the solution is equal to the rate of dissolved ions reforming crystals
T or F, in a dynamic equilibrium, the rates of forward and reverse reactions are equal at equilibrium?
T
At equilibrium...?
no net change occurs spontaneously
What does a forced change (stress) do to the equilibrium?
upsets the equilibrium
What can cause stress to the equilibrium?
Heat
Heating the system stresses the equilibrium, increasing what?
NaCl + heat --- Na+ + Cl-
the rate of the forward reaction and causing more NaCl to dissolve
What happens if the system is maintained at the higher temperature, eventually the rate of the reverse reaction?
"catches" up and equilibrium is reestablished
-rates of both the forward and reverse reactions are greater than at the lower temperature
-no further net change occurs
-more ions (Na+, Cl-), less solids NaCl
Le Chatlier's Principle
an equilibrium responds to a forced stress by shifting in the direction that absorbs the stress OR if a system in equilibrium is subjected to a stress (forced change), the system will change in whichever way restores equilibrium
Application of Le Chatlier's principle to solution of gases involves what Law?
Henry's
Henry's Law
gas(undissolved)---gas dissolved + heat
Gas solubility decreases with?
increasing temperature
How do all gases dissolve ?
exothermically
Heating a solution of dissolved gas shifts the above equilibrium?
to the left
Some gases dissolve, in part, by reacting chemically with?
water
Weight to weight percent (w/w%)
g solute in 100 g of SOLUTION
Example of w/w%. a 10% (w/w) glucose solution has 10.0 g of glucose in 100 g of solution, to prepare, dissolve?
10.0g of glucose in 90.0 g of solvent -- by conservation of mass, the solution weighs 100g
Is the (w/w%) used in the clincal setting?
no
Volume to volume precent (v/v%)
the number of volumes of a substance present in 100 volumes of mixture
Example of v/v%
